St Augustine's was sadly never finished, but as it's only 100 years old, we are lucky to possess a full copy of the plans for the building, so we can visualise how the church was supposed to look. Below are photo's and plans of what the church was originally intended to look like. Further plans and drawings will be added at a later date.
The first drawing is the architect's first drawing of the church. It was later modified when the large and ornate tower disappears from the drawings.
The original floor plan shows that the completed building would be about twice as big as it is now with addition of extra aisles and chapels. The Western and Eastern ends of the aisles would have formed transpets. The darker shaded parts show what was actually built, whilst the lighter shading shows what was still to come.
